Slang terms for age disparity in sexual relationships: which one of these are you?

December 9th, 2007 by javelin

I was searching for the definition of the word gold digger
(just to find out if they’ve already changed its definition from my
high school Webster’s Dict), and I found this from Answers.com:

n. Informal.

A woman who seeks money and expensive gifts from men.

Well,
I was quite disappointed that they didn’t already change it to include
men as well, but I did find something else interesting—a Wikipedia
article on "age disparity in sexual relationships". And the following
are some slang terms lifted verbatim from the article:

  • Bobcat refers to a woman in her 30’s who sexually pursues younger men.
  • Toyboy (or boytoy)
    refers to a young boy or man in a relationship with an older woman or
    man. Use of this terminology is considered by some to be impolite.
  • Haguar
    refers to an unattractive older woman, usually in her 40s, who makes
    unsuccessful sexual advances on younger men (e.g. an ugly Cougar;
    etymologically a portmanteau of "hag" and "cougar" but conformed to rhyme with "jaguar").
  • Cougar refers to an older woman, usually in her 40’s who sexually pursues younger men or women.
  • Chickenhawk describes a much older gay man who "preys" on younger males, i.e. "twinks" or underage boys. The term was used as the name of a television documentary on the subject of NAMBLA.
  • Golddigging refers to a relationship in which a young person pursues an older person for monetary gain.
  • Jailbait refers to a particularly sexually attractive person, female or male, below the legal age of consent. This designation connotes enticement to endanger oneself of being prosecuted for statutory rape.
  • Lolita
    refers to a sexually precocious young girl who is the object of desire
    of a significantly older man. The term refers to the title character of
    Vladimir Nabokov’s novel Lolita, who is referred to by the book’s narrator, Humbert Humbert, as a nymphet.
    While "nymphet" is still used to refer to children, "Lolita" has come
    to be applied to older adolescents and young women in the context of
    pornography. In South American and Cuban Spanish, "lolita" is a
    diminutive of "lola", a slang Spanish word for a prostitute, a usage
    unrelated to Nabokov’s novel.
  • May-December Romance is a
    general and non-prejudicial expression for an age-disparate
    relationship. The expression draws an implicit analogy between one’s
    lifetime and the time of year. Thus "May" refers to the younger
    partner, who is in the spring of his or her life. "December" is the
    elder partner, in the winter of his or her life.
  • MILF (Wiktionary link) - (Mom I’d Like to Fuck) refers to mothers who attract the sexual attention of high-school boys. This acronym was popularized by the movie American Pie and is frequently referred to in pornography. The term is also sometimes euphemistically construed as standing for Mama Is Looking Fine.
  • Mrs. Robinson, a reference to the movie The Graduate, refers to an older woman romantically involved with a younger man.
  • Robbing the Cradle
    (also known as Cradle Snatching) may refer to a situation in which an
    older individual seduces a much younger one; the term stigmatizes the
    act through its use of the word "robbing".
    The tone of this phrase is highly situational—in some cases, where
    consensuality in a relationship is clear, it is often used in a jesting
    manner, but where consensuality may not be evident, it can be intended
    in a very pejorative sense. People who ‘rob the cradle’ are commonly
    called "cradle snatchers" or "cradle robbers".
  • Robbing the Grave
    may refer to the opposite situation, where the object of affection is
    an elderly person. As it makes punning reference to archaeological tomb robbers,
    the term is often used to convey a similar idea to "gold digging", when
    a wealthy elderly person marries a much younger spouse and the speaker
    or writer believes that the younger partner hopes to receive part of
    the fortune upon the older spouse’s death. Some editorial writers used
    the term in reference to the marriage of J.H. Marshall and Vickie Smith
    (who later adopted the pseudonym Anna Nicole Smith).
  • Sugar Daddy
    refers to a rich, usually older man who offers money or gifts to a less
    rich, usually younger person in return for companionship or sexual
    favours. This term is also an underworld code term for a pimp.
  • Sugar Mama
    (compare to sugar daddy) refers to a rich, usually older woman who
    offers money or gifts to a less rich, usually younger person in return
    for companionship or sexual favors.

So uuhhm, which one are you?

Job Hunting Blues

July 26th, 2007 by javelin

Last Friday, the personnel department over at a European outsourcing firm called and invited me for a job interview. Seeing this as an opportunity to once again put my mettle to the test, I accepted to be scheduled for Wednesday, yesterday.

Whew, am I getting rusty… sometimes the pressure of taking job exams just gets to you when you’ve never done it for a while. I was sloppy enough to botch up two problems and miss 3 questions out of 20 in the multiple choice test. But, nevertheless, it was a good experience and I’ll do it again tomorrow if need be. Just to sharpen up things!

Anniversary

July 23rd, 2007 by javelin

I just realized that I already spent a year here in manila just last July
21. It’s amazing how time can just fly by. I’ve already made a lot of
new friends and got reacquainted with some old ones, reestablished
rapport with my brods, celebrated my birthday in the middle of a
typhoon, broke some hearts and in turn had my own broken, went to Subic
twice, finished a few projects and gained a raise, relocated to a new
home, established contact with some relatives, sang in my friend’s
wedding, saw Transformers(!), etc…and missed everything back home. I
miss my dogs, my friends, my family and everything that’s Davao City.
Nonetheless, I had lots of fun here and I’m looking forward to lots
more this year!

Recipe From Hell

July 17th, 2007 by javelin

The Vermicelli from Hell

Hello. In a flash of inspiration or a fit of madness, I invented the following recipe which I call the Vermicelli from Hell. Exactly why I made it, maybe too much alcohol in my system or too many of those Thundarr the Barbarian reruns, I don’t remember. But, I clearly recall the hellishly engineered taste and it caused me nightmares for weeks after. For those stupid enough to try, here it is. Remember that altering the basic ingredients might spoil(!) the taste so be forewarned.

1 can (155 g) canned tuna, spicy (I used Century tuna)
1 can squid adobo (I recommend Saba brand)
1/2 can button mushrooms, sliced. (Use SM bonus for that extra large mutated look)
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 bulb onion, diced
4 red chili pepper (siling labuyo), crushed
1 pack vermicelli noodles
1 tablespoon used oil
1 dash salt
1 pinch sugar
fish sauce (patis)
4 cups water

Sautee the onion and garlic in the used oil in a wok. Add the tuna and heat up for a little while, then add the water and the noodles. Cover up for about 4 minutes then add the salt, sugar and patis (to taste!). Throw in the siling labuyo and canned squid (don’t slice the squid). Cook until it gains that hellish aroma. Serves 20 or more.

Write a suicide note before tasting or, you can wring your hands in the air and shout, "It’s alive!" Then serve your unsuspecting enemies.

My new site!

January 30th, 2006 by javelin

Hi guys. I’ve created a new web site on November, last year and I thought I might advertise it here.  It’s sort of a pumped-up blog of some sort.  Anyway here it is.  ‘Till my next post. ;-)

Transferred…errr???

August 25th, 2005 by javelin

Yep, after a bug that prevented my blog to be seen to the naked eye (or if you like calling a clean white page a blog, suit yourself), I’ve transferred everything in my blog to http://www.blogger.com.  It’s unfortunate that your comments in this blog all had to be deleted along with the other contents that are unviewable anyway (because of that pesky bug).  For all it’s worth, my blog is (and I am) still "Uhaw pa sa camel!".  The photo albums, if you still care to browse them are still hosted here in friendster.  I’m looking forward to your visiting my site at http://uhaw-pa-sa-camel.blogspot.com/.  Chiao!
